-no her CD's are already too long.
course being the slowest champion even with boots you won't live any better
- there are so much more pro's than cons to getting boots early, heck you could get lucidity and those stacked with your masteries have 24% CDR and thats just 1 of the pros to the very large ammount there are.
and also that someone charging in the back of the team to one shot a soraka means a dead soraka that cannot heal
- this is where AP, armor, and MR comes in
most games i play even in ranked get the remark ''oh no, not a soraka it's a useless champion and a waste of a place'' and in most game i can change their mind on how the usefullness of the champion.
- you think i dont know this? shes my main too. Look your idea isnt bad, its just gone about the wrong way, Soraka has alot of holes and with the little ammount of money she will make in the game you can eather try and fill those holes to make her more balanced OR highlight her strengths. This build you try and fill them which means your heals will be below average and long longer than average CD's, the cost of you doing that is to give all your allies a touch of armor and MR where if your opponents play how they should and focus 1 target and then move on to the next that will not make a difference and with your lackluster AP and Extra long CD's will just have to sit at the back with your slow movement and watch your team melt in front of your face. You might as well buy a Shurelya's so you and your team can run away all together when you see the enemy. I just think it needs some work but you appear to be on sorta the right track. Look at some other Soraka aura builds and see if you can improve what your trying to do from there. Thats just a couple of things i see when looking at your build.
you could slow down on the arrogance a little bit ... you obviously didn't tried the guide, you obviously didn't got the point that in team fights if your team lost that you will die, as you said it yourself '' Soraka is already one of the slowest champs and so running like a snail aint gonna let you live any better (of course being the slowest champion even with boots you won't live any better)'' therefore my bet is not running but support my team enough so the fight isn't lost and we don't need to run away from it.
you also commented about the lack of AP. have you ever thought that carry might benifit more from the defensive auras than the actual healing ? that a defencive aura scales better with your healing that CD or AP? and also that someone charging in the back of the team to one shot a soraka means a dead soraka that cannot heal ? i never said that ap soraka is bad but if you want to try something non premade as a team i can assure you that this build is supperior to most ap builds out there in term of supporting the team with a team that won't necessarly protect you.
ps. most games i play even in ranked get the remark ''oh no, not a soraka it's a useless champion and a waste of a place'' and in most game i can change their mind on how the usefullness of the champion. the worst is thinking your way to go is the only way to go reminds me of the attitude of these such players who hate soraka as much as calling her a ''waste of space on a team''.
in my build the boots come 2nd
try something new, you want a tank build so get survivibility, Soraka is already one of the slowest champs and so running like a snail aint gonna let you live any better. thx 4 comming out kid
edit : ''Doesnt look practical to me.'' oh nevermind you red it as a closed minded person.
edit2 : i find it funny that you downvote me saying that my boots are too late at 6500 gold in while i looked at your build and boots are at 8500 .... i edited my comment here to avoid posting these things in your thread to keep it as clean as it gets ... but notice that i could as well downvote your build because it wouldn't be my playstyle but i won't cause 1: it's cheap doing so and 2 : it would kill your rating.
"Soraka's role with this build is supporting/healing carries, tanking damages and luring ennemies. you will notice your position in teamfights will be either a bit behind your main tank or just a bit forward him to make some usually heavy dps (xin, yi, jax, tryn, etc) to take the bait and jump in the middle of your team. If you die in a battle while the rest of your team survived you did your job perfectly but it's even better if you didn't die." And i dont agree with this statement. Supports should not make these kinds of risks. Its totally risky and not worth it. Let the tank initiate as he should.
